Comments

The first church in the district was the Church Point Methodist Church, which was built in 1872, on land donated by William Oliver. For a period in the 1880s it was also used as a school. New schools at Mona Vale and Newport opened in the early 1890s so the school use ceased. The church closed in 1920 due to  declining attendance casued by shifting population and improved transport to more developed areas. A Heritage Cemetery is located beside the site of the original church building1. The story connecting the original church and the present Pittwater Uniting Church is not clear/known. More historical information/photographs of the church(es)/congregation(s) are invited. Photographs uploaded 28/2/2021.
